PG - 441-7 LID - S0828-282X(12)01213-5 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.cjca.2012.08.009 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: The Implantation of Autologous CD133(+) Stem Cells in Patients Undergoing CABG (IMPACT-CABG) trial is investigating the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of intramyocardial injections of autologous CD133(+) stem cells during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy. We are reporting the results of the first 5 open-label patients. METHODS: Bone marrow was harvested from iliac crests and stem cells were isolated using the CliniMACS CD133(+) Reagent System (Miltenyi Biotec, GmbH, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). Patients received CABG, followed by CD133(+) cellular injection in the revascularized hypokinetic myocardium. RESULTS: Five males New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III patients aged 64 +/- 10 years were treated. Immunomagnetic cell processing allowed an average of 100 +/- 48-fold enrichment in CD133(+) cells, with 92 +/- 11% recovery after selection. Mean number of CD133(+) cells injected was 8.4 +/- 1.2 million. There were no protocol-related complications during the 18-month follow-up and all patients improved to NYHA class I. Six-month echocardiography showed no significant improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (34 +/- 2% at baseline vs 38 +/- 12%: P = 0.50). However, cardiac magnetic resonance showed that systolic wall thickening increased from 15.0 +/- 10.5% to 29.0 +/- 22.1% (P = 0.01). In addition, mean segmental wall thickness also improved in comparison with baseline (10.7 +/- 2.7% to 12.1 +/- 4.8%; P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: This work represents the first Canadian experience with CD133(+) stem cells for the treatment of chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy. These results demonstrate the initial safety and feasibility of the IMPACT-CABG pilot trial. Subsequent patients are now being randomized to receive either CD133(+) stem cell or placebo.
